nfbr Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 Their a nice little unit, Shame they had to go and spoil its cute looks with a mounting system comparable to a pylon for its looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 im quite interested in this tomtom thing, especially the one with the bluetooth hands free, could come in very handy! but what i would like to know is where has everyone got theres mounted? any pics? and is the mounting really that ugly?

Snoopy Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Not a huge amount of help if you're going for one of the standalone TomTom GO units, but I had my PDA running TomTom mounted as shown below... border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />I'm sure someone will be along shortly with a TomTom GO mounting pic.

nfbr Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 The mounting system for the tomtom go is as astheaticaly pleasing as a Pylon in your back yard style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyW Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Ah Jon, thats a Brodit clip isn't it? Is it one that you use a couple of wedges to part the trim, shove the clip in and then pull the wedges out and the clips all nice and flush with the panel gap?Been looking at options for mounting the Denison iPod cradle, and I'd rather not let some ICE place loose with a drill, I've read that this is a popular option, but sounds a bit risky to me, part the panels on the dash to shove a clip in.

AndyW Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 (edited) Nice headunit Delvard.Yeah Andy, it is the Brodit solution. I was talking to Snoopy on MSN and I was dead against using an air-vent holder to hold the PDA, but its by far the best option I've found. You have to move the vent about 1mm (if that!) from the dash to slip the clip on, so its really no bother at all.Thanks for the info Jon, certainly preferable to going at it with a drill.
